AFKABartram

ground is a few mins walk from Pritterwell station, though i suspect must of the early birders will stay on into Southend

Prittlewell is nearest the ground on the Liverpool St line but usually more expensive than C2C to southend central.

Prittlewell is 5ish min walk.

5 pubs within walking distance to the ground although I would only drink in 1 of them.

Southend only really has the boring chain pubs in town, Slug, Wetherspoons unless you fancy the seafront which quite frankly is ridiculous.

I'll be Railway Prittlewell station before and after and maybe clubbing in town if we win.

nolly

cheers chris might do that.

Last I saw of it The Golden Lion which is right next to the ground had shut because of a fire. Though I notice that there's a sign where they've named their beer garden "The Lions Den" which looks horribly Millwall, so it might not be such a bad thing ;-)
For those heading for town but not venturing as far as the seafront, the Townhouse and Saks are both good, or if you go to The London Road (A13), The Cricketers is excellent.

add to that the park tavern if you want a non chain pub.

A warning for anyone driving to this match.

Since we last played at Roots Hall, the A127 between Basildon and Southend has been changed from 70 to 50 MPH. This road is also protected with AVERAGE speed cameras and signed with "minimum leagal" warnings.

If you are comming in this way watch out.
